Hi Adrian,

does this clearify the mission:

Recent:
PostgreSQL 11:
   - Db1_foo
   - Db2_bar
   - postgres
   - template1
PostgreSQL 12:
   - Db3_zii
   - Db4_gee
   - postgres
   - template1

Result after Upgrade:
PostgreSQL 14:
   - Db1_foo
   - Db2_bar
   - Db3_zii
   - Db4_gee
   - postgres (not from PG11/PG12)
   - template1 (not from PG11/PG12)

Used extensions: postgis, hstore.

Are you going to be using the same extension versions.
In particular PostGIS?

But I see, that another task might be to have user/roles from both PG11 and 
PG12 copied to PG14.

Something like:

pg_dumpall -g -p <version_port> -U postgres -f <version_number>_globals.sql

run against the 11 & 12 clusters will get you the roles. NOTE: this will also get you tablespaces so if those are in use that is a consideration.

Then :

psql -d postgres -U postgres -p <14_port> -f <version_number>_globals.sql

will restore them to new cluster. If they are repeated the above will throw something like:

ERROR:  role "adrian" already exists

for repeated roles but continue on to fill in the roles that don't exist.

As to rest see Heikki Pernu's post.
